Were you providing different routers before, or customers were providing their 
own routers?

Equipment availability is definitely a huge problem right now. Maybe less so 
for operators that buy a years worth in advance which I think is how Calix 
prefers. Shipping 50 at a time is not their style. 

 

The 15-20k will be integrations with your billing system and API, plus the 
setup of the cloud and on boarding for your techs and support people. 

 

If you don’t plan on doing any integrations you can probably negotiate that 
number down.

 

The price is high but it’s high quality set and forget type infrastructure. Our 
support calls went way down when we started getting these routers in.

You can ask them for a lower upfront cost without integration. Tell them
you're a WISP and would like WISP pricing and they'll have a special deal
for you.

We have over 1,300 routers in the field and love them to death.

 Fiber is exclusively 844G for ONT/termination/demarc) for us.

 For us, we're wanting to hook up fiber customers as fast as possible
 and would rather get the MRC sooner rather than later.  They all currently
 have cableco (Spectrum/Charter).  We provide the router/meshes.

Re: [AFMUG] Calix users

2020-10-19 Thread Josh Luthman 
Not using it yet.  I've yet to see any benefit.

Called them out on a problem and I said let's see if it fixes it.  Looks
like it's a (their words) defective 844G.  Support cloud might help at
large scale but right now my issues are the 804 meshes staying paired to
the 844G.

 We are about to bite the bullet on Calix. Are you guys charging for the
 equipment, or adding a monthly service charge? Or is this part of your
